Regina Spektor

After self-releasing her first three albums and gaining popularity in New York City’s independent music scene, particularly the anti-folk scene centered on New York City’s East Village, Spektor signed with Sire Records in 2004 resulting in greater mainstream recognition.

After giving her third album a major label re-release, Sire released Spektor’s fourth album, Begin to Hope, which achieved a Gold certification by the RIAA. Her following two albums, Far and What We Saw from the Cheap Seats, each debuted at number 3 on the Billboard 200.
